Wow listening to Phil Kollar's excuses to justify his low score for the game are nitpicking to be honest. He describes the difficulty spikes & while i am playing the game i simply do not notice any of this stuff he is talking about it.

I believe having a particular familiar in your party makes a huge difference in battle. Every familiar have stars representing their attack speed & movement speed, these give you a good indication on which familiar to take with you.

I have some disagreements with some of their points & i agree with some of their other points.
